COMPETENCE IS OUR STRENGTH
Stieber, part of the Altra Industrial Motion Group is – together with its sister companies Formsprag and Marland in the USA – the world’s market leader for overrunning clutches and backstops. Our extensive world-wide service network including more than 1000 stocking distributors and technical centres ensures we are always close to the customers. Our company philosophy is total customer satisfaction. To achieve this, our processes undergo continual refinement. Stieber has been certified according to DIN EN ISO 9001 since 1997 and according to ISO 14001 (environment management system) since the year 2000. In addition, an internal monitoring process ensures that quality, timeliness and costs are always to the fore.
Stieber was founded in Munich in 1937 and is now a medium-sized company employing 140 people at its locations in Heidelberg and Garching near Munich.
Our core business activity is the design and production of drive elements for mechanical engineering systems.
Our major strength is the development and production of overrunning clutches and backstops, which transmit torque by means of friction.
Stieber can reflect on numerous innovative developments during the course of the company’s history; innovations that have made it the European market leader. Stieber proved its technical ability once again during the development and design of the largest backstop in the world, for example. This and other backstops are being successfully used even under the toughest of conditions.

THE PRINCIPLE
Overrunning clutches are directional couplings, which means they are engaged and disengaged automatically, depending on the relative direction of rotation of the driving and driven sides.
Practical applications of this principle:
• Overrunning clutch for multiple-machine drives or to separate the inertia of masses of a driven machine from the driving machine after it has been switched off.
• Indexing clutch which turns a shaft step by step, thus achieving indexed material feed or a variable speed.
• Backstop to prevent a machine shaft turning backwards. In this case the overrunning clutch is used as a brake.
Sprag clutchBASIC FORMS
To achieve the above-described functions, so-called locking elements are positioned bet-ween an outer and an inner race which effect engaging and disengaging.
These locking elements are in two basic designs:
• Roller clutch which are mainly used as overrunning and indexing clutches.
• Sprag clutch which are most suitable as backstops, here mainly the contact-free versions.

THE QUALITY HAS TO BE RIGHT.AND THAT’S SOMETHING YOU CAN RELY ON.
Test bench and test results:Stieber products always fulfil the promised properties.
“Total quality is assured both by meeting prescribed product performance specifications and thanks to the reliability of manufacturing methods and process workflows including integrated tests. The key technical data of Stieber products are either calculated using FVA methods and/or verified on our test benches.
We have test machines with a torque capacity of up to 700,000 Nm. During idling, units with a bore up to 600 mm can be tested at speeds of up to 1,500 rpm. The modern equipment in our quality department allows us to carry out all the necessary tests ourselves, such as those for the nuclear power industry, for example. Thanks to this, Stieber has been certified by Areva among others in compliance with KT 1401.”
